\This happened not without some effort as a result of my hard work in goal setting. It was a struggle at times given ADD and my deteriorated skills in multi tasking. I became totally confused about:
- who to invite?
- who have I already invited and forgotten about,?
- who would want to come anyway?
- who do want to improve my contact with?
- How many can I fit into my apartment?
- how will I survive two social functions in one day as well as shopping, cleaning, costuming?
- Should I invite guests by email, letter, phone, facebook .....some of them don't answer phones or email.
My energy levels were severely tested. I greeted party guests late due to my lack of skills in facepainting . (Just how do you apply white face paint without getting it everywhere else!) I was quite mentally and physically exhausted.by the time the party started . But later on I began to feel the positive boost from having long neglected friends smiling, laughing, singing and generally having a good time.
It made me feel good again not be so afraid to be my 'crazy' self. I am so excited about the fact that I may not appear to others as boorish as I imagined myself to be especially when I'm tired. Well at least in party mode.

Expressing my eccentricity seemed to bring people closer to me at least in this setting.
I just need to select the appropriate occasion , pace myself better, plan ahead, get enough sleep and avoid the temptation to create the best party ever held.
There I was once again destroying songs at the piano (due to lack of playing practice) with a nun in a tutu on one side of me singing heavenly harmonies and a crowded lounge room of people in funny hats.
Is this yet another sign that my best personality is to use my gifts and talents with which I have been blessed and worked so hard to develop. It helped my confidence and self esteem to no end. I guess it was worth getting a year older.

Motto: Play more piano and plan more parties......but give yourself enough time!
